🎅🏊‍♀️ Swim with Santa was a splash of holiday fun! 🎄
We had such a wonderful time celebrating with our YMCA families and guests at our Swim with Santa event. Participants enjoyed photos with Santa, fun games, exciting prizes, and wrapped up the festivities with sweet treats and cozy hot cocoa. ☕🍪

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make this event so special. We loved seeing all the smiles and holiday cheer in the pool—and we can’t wait to bring you more fun and festive aquatic events coming soon! 💙💦

❄️ Delayed Opening Notice ❄️

Safety is always a top priority at the YMCA. Due to the predicted snowfall, the expected timing of the storm, and to ensure our parking lot and walkways can be safely cleared, the YMCA will have a delayed opening tomorrow, Sunday, opening at 10:00 AM.

We appreciate your understanding and look forward to welcoming you once conditions are safe. Please travel carefully and stay warm! 💙

We are incredibly honored and deeply grateful to have been selected as the host site for the 10th Annual Ron Jaworski Bike Drive in partnership with JAWs Youth Playbook, the NFL Alumni Association, and their amazing sponsors.

Seeing hundreds of brand-new bikes, along with helmets and locks, built with love and gifted to children and families right here in Gloucester County filled our hearts to be able to give back. The joy on our kids’ faces and the excitement shared by their families is something we will never forget.

To Ron Jaworski, JAWs Youth Playbook, the NFL Alumni Association, and every sponsor and volunteer who made this possible—thank you for believing in our YMCA and for investing so generously in our youth and community. Your support is already creating ripples of impact, and we are incredibly grateful.

Because of this partnership and generosity, we are already working on a new project to further support youth and families at the Gloucester County YMCA—and we can’t wait to share what’s next.

From our YMCA family to yours, thank you for helping us strengthen our community, one child at a time. ❤️🚲
